My neck, my back...

Unfortunately, my title is not a segway into a really hot story about dirty sex. Sorry, pervos.

But it is literally about my neck and back. Guess who has a mild case of scoliosis at the age of 26?! Yup, went to the doc's last Friday to get an assessment on the aches and pains I've been feeling for the last week, and was told that I was getting old. Ok - not the exact words the doctor used, but that's what I heard in my head.

This situation does not help the feeling of "getting old" in general, which has slowly crept upon me in the last year. Everyone makes a big stink about turning 25, but I think 26 is even worse. It's over the hump. It's closer to 30. It's got a "6" in it (Not really a reason, I'm aware, but I just wanted to have three).

Some of you reading (who's reading this anyway?!) might be thinking: "Waaah. Suck it up."

Well, for your information, I have been doing just that. I "suck it up" everyday when I try to fit into a pair of pants, which a year earlier use to fit me. Just another blow to the aged ego.

So - what am I going to do about it? Well, I'm going to get the massage of a lifetime to fix the ol' spine. And then I'm going to eat healthier, drink less, and actually run when I "go for a run."

But not until I do one thing first - complain about it. After all, I'm feeling like a middle aged crank at the moment - I may as well take advantage of it for a little bit.

"Oh...my neck...my back..."
